Washington Special to Cln. Commercial.l The interest in the so called Florida exposures has nearly entirely died away. The Democrats are gathering up the frag-menu from the explosion, and getting the thing in shape for campaign use this fall. Not one in five of the Democratic mem-btrs of Congress propose to attempt to open the case with a purpose to unseat Hayes, A small but noisy minority talk wildly about attempts to connect Messrs. Noyes and Hayes with the Florida swindle, as they call it, and enforce the removal of one and impeach the other, but the more respectable majority frown upon this programme, and advocate laying the facts before the country as bo much campaign thunder, but nothing further. The two extremes the disgruntled Republicans and rampant Demccrale who have been instrumental in doctoring up these confessions and getting them before the country, are disappointed that the thing baa fallen ao flat. Ia the Strawberry Wnoleaome? Some people can digest anything. The ostrich enjoys iron spikes and barrel hoops. Strawberries to the great majority ol people are certainly wholesome, or at least not directly injurious ; but that they are universally wholesome and unequalled by any other fruit, as isclaimed, we deny. Many people can riot eat them at all. We do not allude only to persons liable to attack of gout or skin diseases, to whom strawberries are almost poisonous ; but to those who are in the enjoyment of general good health. They aeem to affect the tissues and excite the blood, Eroducing pimples, blotches and even oils. We saw a young lady, a belle, at a fashionable watering place, three or four years ago, who was obliged, much to her discomfiture, to confine herself to her room for ten days from eating a plate of strawberries in the evening. And we have known of many others who were forced to abstain from their enjoyment allogether for the tame reason, OermantomTelegraph BY TELEGRAPH TO TBS OHIO 1UTATX JVVKHAJL FOREIGN.

It is reported that a genuine case nf leprosy bus bseu discovered in the Balti more City Hotpital. Tae victim of this orribie malady is a man of foriyfive years, named Abraham Brown, who namn from New York several months ago. He waB admitted to the hospital and treated for a cutaneous disease, which gradually developed iuto true lepro3y. His hands, feet and face shriveled, became scaly, and were covered with numerous tubercles As the disease advanced, laceration of ihe tongue and sloughing of tho flesh from the effected pans euBUed, until the pa inn whs m ou luuurauie state, and tbe iflbrts of tho physician in cliarirn ero concentrated merely with a view lo pro- ivv.iz inc. -A uiB case nas exciiecl great in- among memhers of tbe medical profession.

A Washington ppecial to the Cincinnati Commercial of yesterday says : The Uouee made unusually rapid progress with Ihe Appropriation bills to-day, pass- ug me inuiau Dill and hnishing about weniy pages ol tne Legislative, Execu lve and Judicial bill. The reductions proposed by ihe committee ou Appropria- lons met with less opposition from the itepuuncans man was expected. In near ly every instance an attempt to increase ngures ot tue committee were voted down, but the Senate will restore the amounts ut from the salaries of its officials. This cloies a week of the most active legislation of the session. Work is progressing rapidly, and if the Tariff and Revenue bills shall be abandoned for this session. as it is quite probable the House will decide to do, there is little reason why the nnai aujournment may not ue expected by tbe middle or latter part of June. There is a growing anxiety among members to get uome in order to take part in the campaign in meir respective mates and istrictB. Many are troubled with re- ports from homo which are far from re assuring. Ohio. Mike Holme, a brakeinnn, had a leg cruehed by the cars at Green Springs, on tne zuia.

Proehl, a school teacher of ortnn. eummit county, was arrested on the 2Gth, on the charge of bastardy, the complaint being made by Flora A. Kepler, a girl of eighteen. Proehl furnished bonds of $500, and was diecharged from custody. Dr. Milton Lemen, at one time one of Madison county's best citizens, died on the 20th, aged sixty years. In 1861 he was elected a member of the State Legis lature from Madison county. In 1863 he was selected by the Governor as Eiamin- g Surgeon of drafted and enlisted men for his district. He was afflicted with paralysis in 1S66, and continued in very infirm health until death ended his sufferings.On the 24th O wen Coughlin, of Urbana. purchased a horse and wagon of a strange young man named trunk Shafler, who sold them for $140, and departed. On the ztti w. M. Haskamp, a larmer living near Bellefontaine, and a Bellefontaine detective, claimed the horse and wagon. Haskamp says that Shaffer, his son-in- law, borrowed the team with the intention of taking a load to Degraff, but came to uroana ana sola them, and lett for parts nanown, Van Wert has been infested for some time by a gang of counterfeiters. It has seemed a mystery until the night of tho 25th, when Harry Blair, a noted desnera- o. Phil Anschulz. Marshal Thatcher and his daughter were arrested hv United BtateB Marshal Gaakill. Implements for molding half-dollars, quarlers and nickels were found ia their possession. An-schutz turned State's evidence.

About two years ago. one George Har ris, who lives near Seven-Mile, in Butler county, took from the Children's Home, two orphans, brother and sister, and children of Jacob Straub. They were at that time aDout eight and seven years old, the boy being the elder. It seems that Mr. Harris treated the ohildren kindly, bat niri. narris used mem worse than brutes. The discovery has recently been made mat me girl has been taken to the cellar. stripped nude, tied to a post, and beaten on tbe bare flash till the blond ran. Th boy was held under water until life was well nigh gone, a rope around bis body, and hiscoat palled over his head and tied so as to prevent any attempt at self preservation. They were forbid to complain to any one, under the penalty af further and worse chastisement, The proper author- niea nave oeen nouued, and the children taxen care oi. Colonel Vance was returned to Lis home in Uallipolls Saturday, and was met in Cincinnati by his wife. The de tails of the search and present condition of the gentleman named is taken from the Cincinnati Commercial of tho 27th : Colonel Vanca was conducted from San irancieco by Captain Leo A. Knight. who, with Mr. Aleshire. pursued the in quiries set riooi oy tne disappsaranc?, irom which it appears that the first trace was discovered in St. Louis, where Colonel Vance's baggage was checked through to mat city, while on the way there, those gentlemen encountered a dispatch at Omaha, sent by Mrs. Vance, from Golli-polis, to say that her husband was in San Francisco with W. O. Lang. TelcgramB were exchanged between tho partius, the result of which was that Mr. Lang, who turns out to be an old friend of Colonel Vance, acenmpauied him to Omaha, where he waB taken in charge by the Gil-lipolis party. And very fortunate it was that Colonel Vance fell in with hiB oldl friend, for the encounter took place justl ai ine critical time when he needed tbe attention and devotion of a friend. Colo nel Vance's insanity has assumed the harmless type, but it is none tbe lers a source of extreme anxiety and pain to his friends and family, with whom bo many sympathizs under all the circnm- stancea of the case. Forelffn. Intelligence has been received in Con stantinople that the Museeiman insur gents surprised the Russian encampment, near Philippopolip, taking one thousand piisoneis and four guns. They are now marching toward SamakofT, Moooce has suggested that the Porte should offer the insurgents amnesty in the event of their laying down their arms. A dispatch from London says great en thusiasm was manifested in military cir cles last night, on its becoming known that tbe whole of the staff and commissioned officers at Aldersbott had re- oeived stringent orders from the War Office to hold themselves in complete readiness for immediate active service. In addition it was stated that all the principle officers had received important secret nsiruciions tor certain contingencies. The North German Gazette says the in terest of diplomacy centers in the answer of England to Italy's inquiry as to the ungneu programme. At the outbreak of the war, England honorably laid down her interests as a guide and measure of her attidude. Since the conclusion of peace she has been exclusively parading in the interest of so-called uropean interests. No one knows how these interests are to ba described. Her programme, the color of which Eogland must, eooncr or later, make known, and which has already assumed various aspects, from the language of different English Ministers, will ultimately be decisive of the Eiatern crisis. The London Times comments on the dispatch from Us St. Petersburg corrc spondent, in which it is stated that one issue out of the present complications con sists in undoing much of Russia's work. and giving the rest a European, instead of a specially rtussian character; that an other consists in what is called the prin ciple of equivalents or compensation to me rowers lor txussiVd acquisitions, and that the latter solution is tbe one Russia desires, while Great Britain seems resolved to insist upon the former. The articlo says : It is a partition of Turkey that Russia desires now. It was the partition Bhe desired at the time of the Crimean war. Againatsuch a policy we contended then and are contending now. Referring to the Italian proposition, that England state her views, tbe Times says -. It would be futile and inconsistent with our position to propose any scheme until the main principle of European control has been conceded, without which no echeme would acquire yalidiiy or sanction. How Women Illde Tilings. The curious ways that women have of hiding their mouey are shown by the Cincin nati Commercial, That caner save Mrs. Hansen put $50 in the oven of her stove one night to keep it safe. Next morning after breakfast the national debt had been diminished exactly that much, A student of the ourioua would find it interesting to note the places in which women hide their money. One excellent and frugal dame used to tuck her little savings away under a corner of the carpet. The tiny roll of greenbacks grew fatter and fatter in the course of a year or two, when the day after it counted up $250 the house took fire, burnt to the ground, and again the national debt was diminished by a little roll of woman's pin money. There was that other careful lady, too, who used sometimes to hide her diamond rings between two teacups in the kitchen cupboard, sometimes behind a certain brick in the cellar, and again under the lining of an old hat. She had divers other places of safety for her jewels aUo, the only trouble being that she had so many hiding places Bhe occasionally forgot where she had last put her precious things, and about every three months would fancy she had been robbed, and the bouse would be turned inside out and all therein made uncomfortable until the missing gems would be found carefully tucked away in the fulds of the bottom towel of the pile in the left hand corner of the lower drawer in the close press at the east end of the dining room, A Baltimore Cinoat Story. A champion ghost story comes from Baltimore. Many years ago an eccentric and miserly man named Middleton died in a certain house, and though he was thought to have been worth nearlv $50.- 000, not a cent could be found by his heirs. Recently a German named Peter Rsth bought the house, and a few nights after had a dream, In which old Middle-ton appeared to him, and urged him to clean out a certain closet in the rear of tho building. Reth paid no attention to the ghostly mandate, until it was twice repeated, but on the third time the old gentleman appeared so much excited that Reth called In a lot of men and set Ihem at work. During the excavation of the floor they came across a quantity of coin, and it is said carried away four buckets full of it, handing over a small portion to Reth, who is now taking legal steps to recover the treasure. STATE CORRESPONDENCE. Znneavlilc. Zanesville, April 28. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal : The grand jury have found true indictments against William Trovell, Henry Blonda, Qeorge Brown and James Stee-ver, for burglary; Robert McCrudel, co habiting in a state of adultery, assault with intent to commit rape and petit lar ceny; Jacob Snider, for violating liquor laws: Ellen Minthorn. grand larceny; and Joflerson Moorehead. murder in tbe lint degree. As already stated in this correannnd. ence,this latter caee will be the sensational oase in the present term of Court, oircnm etanlial evidence, at least, being consid- crauir .gainst ine accused. A brief his tory of the case la as follows : In Jnn. 1875 or 1870. the body of John Brnnk. Who bad been hunting, was found in woods, not far from hin hnm near Sonora, this county, with a bullet-hole in his head. The verdict of tho Pnr. oner's jury was that he had accidentally Bhot himself. Suspicion, however, rested on Moorehead and the case was brought before a grand jury, but dismissed, for want of evidenoa against him. In the latter part of this winter the case was again revived by tho mother nf Rmlr filing an affidavit against Moorehead accusing him of the deed. In the succeeding trial it was elicited that Brock had in his possession a shotgun at the time of death, leaving some cause for wonder how the bullet-hole was caused.

Bishop triumphs, and the cause of true reform (?) and Democracy is vindicated. The Trustees mot in ad journed session last night, haying made a second meeting necessary by reason of a lack of suitable material for the several offices at the meeting of two weeks ago. The not result may be briefly stated. Dr. H. C.

It is reported that Dr. Gundry, of the Central Asylum, has been tendered two places, as Superintendent of a Michigan asylum and a Maryland hospital. James Ballard made an assignment today. His estate will pay out. P. W. Boyle assigned also, and will not pay more than fitly cents on the dollar. llellnlre. Bellaire, Apiil 27. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal i The Republican diofrict committee will meet in this city next Saturday to fix the time and place for holding the Congressional Convention. LaBt week the County Commissioners visited the Children's Home in Washing, ton county, near Marietta, and the district Children's Home of Stark and Columbiana counties, for the purpose of gathering information in regard to the character of buildings and general workings of such institutions. They will meet again soon at Barnesville for the purpose of visiting sites proposed for the Children's Home in this county. We understand that between forty and sixty acres of land will be needed for the purpose. A number of young men met at the City Hall, a few evenings since, for the purpose of electing officers and making other necessary arrangements to institute a Council of the Junior Order of American Mechanics. Tbe object of the order is to maintain the interest ef American youths and shield them from foreign competition; to assist Americans in obtaining employment ; establish a sick and funeral fund, and to prepare youths of America tn he- come members of tbn Order of American inecnanics when they arrive at a proper age. Newark. Newark, April 28. To the Editor of the Ohio Heats Journal : Judge Hunter passed sentence on the following named persona convicted of Penitentiary offenses yesterday afternoon Alfred Jones, for the murder of his daughter, for life; Wm, Jakeway, horse stealiug, one year; Sirah Honenaline, too mucn married, one year. Sarah is no blushing maiden of sixteen summers, by a large majority, but on the contrary is of an age when she ought to know better.

Keep your boys and girls at home, but don t expect to keep them thero by throwing to them the ohaff and keeping the grain yourselves. Don't ask or expect improbable thingsof them. Don't expect them to love a homo which has nothing in it to make it lovely, but where it is constant servitude from morning till night. Don't expect them to love your oiu nuisioes wnen you nave never given them anything there but bard, dull work. uan i expect vour daughters will nva f ha old homestead when they have got to leave it to learn the first lesson in cultim or innocent pleasure. Make your home cneenui ana you will make it a happy one. Instead of making the boy hoe all day on the hillside for you, let him hoe a nan day mere, occasionally for himself. Plow up an acre for the boy and let him have what he raises, and you will soon find that what little leisure time he has will be spent there insteed of running to the village.

S.en by ihe Naked Eye The Rochester Eworesa of Ihe 17th inst. says : "The fact that human eyes with the aid of a field-glass have seen rifla bullets during their flight from tho muzzle of the rifle to the point at which they were aimed, has beon published, we believe, several times, but we have never seen, to our knowledge, tbe announcement that they could be seen with the naked eye. Yet it la a well-attested fact that ritle balls were seen in their flight by sev eral gentlemen without the aid of a gloss or anything, at the rifle range north of this city, one day last week. A high wina was Plowing and Bhowers were frequent in fact, it rained almost constant ly. When the spectators Htood at one Biue ot the shooter they could only fol low the ball to the highest point of the arc which it describes, but when they stood immediately behind the shooter (he lying down and they standing up) they could follow the bullet from a point about lu ieet irom tne muzzle all the way to the target, or whatever object it struck. Oao gentleman told the shooter, immediately after he had fired, that he had shot too much to the right, and tbe signal of me maraer a minute or Iwo aiierward confirmed exactly what ne had said. The balls were seen while the shooters were firing at 500 yards distance. The rifles were of the heavy military kind, which carry a large bullet. Those who saw the bullets on their flight, say that the arc deecribed by them is immense at that distance, and that they also appear to curve to tbe right ai well as up and down." 'l'lio Vatican TnpcMtries. Fall Mall Gazette. It is said that L?o XIII has givan or ders to have the large quantities of tapsB- iry wuicn now ue nio in drawers and cupboards io the Vatican rummaged out, and hung in chronologicil order along the galleries where they C3n be seen. There will be many interesting pieces among them : a quantity of Gobelins, as the French court fur a long time made a present ef a piece every year to the reignirg Pontiff ; pieces of the Flemish schools of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries ; and several of those designed by Raphael, which were saved in the sack of Rome. It would be a good thing if tho Italian government or court would follow the Pope's example; for hidden way in cellars and back roooiB of the Pitti Palace, at Florence, thero are known to be piles of old damasks and bro cades, falling fo pieces for want of look ing alter and bringing to the light : they cannot be sold though many artists and others would gladly buy them without superior orders, and it is said that the only purpose they serve is to be torn up when dusters are required and nothing else is handy. Ventilation. Many persons complain of always getting up tired in the morning. This is very often due to defecliva ventilation of the bedroom, or from using an undue amount of bed clothes and bedding. Feather beds are too Bolt and yielding, and partially envelope the sleeper, thus producing profuse percpiration. The habit of lying too much under blankets ia aleo very per-nioious by reason of the carbonic acid ex haled by the sleeper being respired. Again, it is a common error to suppose mat oy Bimpty opening a window a little at the top a room can be ventilated. Peo ple forget that for proper ventilation there must be an inlet and outlet for the air. In bedrooms there is often neither, and if there is a fireplace, it is generally closed up, Again, it is a mistake to suppose that foul air goes to the top of a room. Certainly the heated air goes to ihe top, but the chjef impurity, the carbonic acid, falls to the bottom. There is nothing so emcactous in removing tbe lower strata of air as the ordinary open fireplace, especially if there is a fire burning. Sanitary Retard. Sleep'. Time. Sleep obtained two hours before midnight when the negative forces are in op eration, is the rest which most recuperates tbe system, giving brightness to the eye and a glow to the cheek. The difference in the appearance of a person who habitually retires at ten o'clock and that of one who sits up until twelve, is quite remarkable. Tbe tone of tbe system, so evident in the complexion, the clearness and sparkle of tho eye, and the softness of the lines of the features, is in a person of health kept at a "concert pitch" by taking regular rest two hours before twelve o'clock, and thereby obtaining the "beauty sleep" of the night. There is a heaviness of the eye, a sallowness of the skin, and an absence of that glow in the face which renders it fresh in expression and round in appearance, that readily distinguishes the person who keeps late hours. What smoklni Does for Boys. A certain doctor, struck with the large number of boys under fifteen years of age whom he observed smoking, was led to inquire into the effect the habit had upon the general health. He took for his purpose thirtyeight boys, aged from nine to fifteen, and carefully examined them; in twentyseven of them he discovered in jurious traces of the habit. In twentytwo there were various disorders of the circulation and digestion, palpitation of the heart, and a more or less marked taste for strong drink. In twelve there was frequent bleeding of the nose, ten had disturbed sleep, and twelve had slight ulceration of the mucous membrane of the mouth, which disappeared on oeasing from the use of tobacco for some days. The doctor treated them all for weakness, but with little effect until the smoking was discontinued, when health and strength were Boon restored, Now, this is no "old wife's tale," as these facts are given under the authority of the British Medical Journal, Insect, on Ro.es. Ellwanger and Barry adopt the following remedy : Boil fourouncee of onasaia chips ten minutes in a gallon of soft water, and after straining add four ounces of soft Boap, which should be dissolved as it cools, stirring well before using. With a small. clean painter's brush, apply it toevery in- icciea ieai ana buooi. in Ulteen or twenty minutes wash the plants with pure water. Tobacco may be used instead of the quassia. For some insects a sprink ling of powdered hellebore will destroy or disperse them, the plants being previously well moistened. HORSE AND TURF NOTES.

Sleepy George, the celebrated "acinar horse.wos sold by his owner Mr. John Pa'-teraon, on last Thursday, to W. H. Crawford, of Cleveland, for $2500 cash.

Sleepy George is among the fastest pacers in the United States, but he is handicapped in the Eist, having to be weighted in bis contests, and consequently in not profitable. On this acoount, we learn that together with Rarus. he will be. shipped to California shortly. George was a rare gocd horse and we regret his departure. His Favorite Mnlo. Eureka (Gal.) Sentinel. A Eureka teamster is noted for the affection that he betrays for one of tbe mules in hiB outfit, the roost obstinate and margy-Iookii g animal in tho string, and his londnees for "Nancy," as he calls her, h.iB paesed into a proverb. Upon being rallied upon this peculiarity by a chum, he discoursed as follows : "I used to have a sweetheart back in Iniiauv that I was awful gone on, and this yere cussed mule has bo many pints in common that my heart just yearns over her. She was as likely a gal as ever run bare-footed in a cornfield, but she was too cussed obstinate to enjoy good health. You never knew juat how to take her. She'd look you right smiling in the eye, and you'd think thar were more Btigar in her nor in a New Orleans merlaes;o hogshead, but if you laid yer hands on her onexoected like. she'd kick the breeching all to h 1 in less than a minute, i hat'djust the way with that mule. I reckon she's cost me nigh onto $500 for harness, Baying nothing about a doctor's bill for a broken leg; but you get into a place whar the mud's deep, and the rest of tho team kerflum-muxed, and call onto her for assistance, and blast my eyes if she won't pull herself clear out of her bide to help you out of your trouble. That were the very way with Nancy. The summer 'fore I emigrated I were mighty with the ager, and got the milk fever on top of that, and I were pretty nearly ready to croBa over Jordan, but she nussed me, helped her ole dad all day, aud sit up with me nights until she were a sbadder, but she pulled me through, and then she advised me to emigrate to Callforny. I hated to go away; it were like persuading a hungry hoes to leave a pail of oats; but thar war no use, she were bound to hev her way, and I came. That war fifteen year ago, and I hadn't been in the country a month 'fore I got knews of her dying. Poor gal I she overdone hcreel' takin' care of my worthless carcass, and I never seen no woman since that time that were worth shucks compared to her." His eyes were moist as he closed his affecting reminiscences, sod if any of our readers notice a mouse colored lead mule that can kick a fly off her; companion's ear with unfailing accuracy, or outpull any pair in the team, they will know that the romance of the driver's life is centered in that animal, and respect the tender memories that cause him to bestow upon her the affection that waB once tho sole properly of the departed "Nancy." Statistic. Abont Writing-. The Printing Times says we must accept the following data on the authority of the compiler, who has evidently more time than business on his hands: A rapid penman can write thirty words in a minute. To do this he must draw bin pen through the apace of a rod, 16J feet. In forty minutes his pen travels a furlong. We make on an average sixteen curves or turns of the pen in writing each word, Writing thirty words in a minute, we must make 480 to each minute; in an hour, 28,800; in a day of only five hours, 144,000; and in a year of 800 days, 43,200,000. The man who made 1,-000,000 Btrokes with his pen in a month was not at all remarkable. Many men, newspaper writers for instance, make 4,-000,000. Here we have, on the aggregate, a mark of 300 miles long to be traced on paper by such a writer in a year. In making each letter nf tha ordinary alphabet we must make from three to seven turns of the pen, or an average of three and a half to four. Perhaps some equally ingenious person will next inform us how much ink a journalist can save by not dotting his "i's." Singalar Will Case. A singular will case was decided at Washington last Week.

Washington Special to Cln. Commercial.l The interest in the so called Florida exposures has nearly entirely died away. The Democrats are gathering up the frag-menu from the explosion, and getting the thing in shape for campaign use this fall. Not one in five of the Democratic mem-btrs of Congress propose to attempt to open the case with a purpose to unseat Hayes, A small but noisy minority talk wildly about attempts to connect Messrs. Noyes and Hayes with the Florida swindle, as they call it, and enforce the removal of one and impeach the other, but the more respectable majority frown upon this programme, and advocate laying the facts before the country as bo much campaign thunder, but nothing further. The two extremes the disgruntled Republicans and rampant Demccrale who have been instrumental in doctoring up these confessions and getting them before the country, are disappointed that the thing baa fallen ao flat. Ia the Strawberry Wnoleaome? Some people can digest anything. The ostrich enjoys iron spikes and barrel hoops. Strawberries to the great majority ol people are certainly wholesome, or at least not directly injurious ; but that they are universally wholesome and unequalled by any other fruit, as isclaimed, we deny. Many people can riot eat them at all. We do not allude only to persons liable to attack of gout or skin diseases, to whom strawberries are almost poisonous ; but to those who are in the enjoyment of general good health. They aeem to affect the tissues and excite the blood, Eroducing pimples, blotches and even oils. We saw a young lady, a belle, at a fashionable watering place, three or four years ago, who was obliged, much to her discomfiture, to confine herself to her room for ten days from eating a plate of strawberries in the evening. And we have known of many others who were forced to abstain from their enjoyment allogether for the tame reason, OermantomTelegraph BY TELEGRAPH TO TBS OHIO 1UTATX JVVKHAJL FOREIGN.

Colonel Vance was returned to Lis home in Uallipolls Saturday, and was met in Cincinnati by his wife. The de tails of the search and present condition of the gentleman named is taken from the Cincinnati Commercial of tho 27th : Colonel Vanca was conducted from San irancieco by Captain Leo A. Knight. who, with Mr. Aleshire. pursued the in quiries set riooi oy tne disappsaranc?, irom which it appears that the first trace was discovered in St. Louis, where Colonel Vance's baggage was checked through to mat city, while on the way there, those gentlemen encountered a dispatch at Omaha, sent by Mrs. Vance, from Golli-polis, to say that her husband was in San Francisco with W. O. Lang. TelcgramB were exchanged between tho partius, the result of which was that Mr. Lang, who turns out to be an old friend of Colonel Vance, acenmpauied him to Omaha, where he waB taken in charge by the Gil-lipolis party. And very fortunate it was that Colonel Vance fell in with hiB oldl friend, for the encounter took place justl ai ine critical time when he needed tbe attention and devotion of a friend. Colo nel Vance's insanity has assumed the harmless type, but it is none tbe lers a source of extreme anxiety and pain to his friends and family, with whom bo many sympathizs under all the circnm- stancea of the case. Forelffn. Intelligence has been received in Con stantinople that the Museeiman insur gents surprised the Russian encampment, near Philippopolip, taking one thousand piisoneis and four guns. They are now marching toward SamakofT, Moooce has suggested that the Porte should offer the insurgents amnesty in the event of their laying down their arms. A dispatch from London says great en thusiasm was manifested in military cir cles last night, on its becoming known that tbe whole of the staff and commissioned officers at Aldersbott had re- oeived stringent orders from the War Office to hold themselves in complete readiness for immediate active service. In addition it was stated that all the principle officers had received important secret nsiruciions tor certain contingencies. The North German Gazette says the in terest of diplomacy centers in the answer of England to Italy's inquiry as to the ungneu programme. At the outbreak of the war, England honorably laid down her interests as a guide and measure of her attidude. Since the conclusion of peace she has been exclusively parading in the interest of so-called uropean interests. No one knows how these interests are to ba described. Her programme, the color of which Eogland must, eooncr or later, make known, and which has already assumed various aspects, from the language of different English Ministers, will ultimately be decisive of the Eiatern crisis. The London Times comments on the dispatch from Us St. Petersburg corrc spondent, in which it is stated that one issue out of the present complications con sists in undoing much of Russia's work. and giving the rest a European, instead of a specially rtussian character; that an other consists in what is called the prin ciple of equivalents or compensation to me rowers lor txussiVd acquisitions, and that the latter solution is tbe one Russia desires, while Great Britain seems resolved to insist upon the former. The articlo says : It is a partition of Turkey that Russia desires now. It was the partition Bhe desired at the time of the Crimean war. Againatsuch a policy we contended then and are contending now. Referring to the Italian proposition, that England state her views, tbe Times says -. It would be futile and inconsistent with our position to propose any scheme until the main principle of European control has been conceded, without which no echeme would acquire yalidiiy or sanction. How Women Illde Tilings. The curious ways that women have of hiding their mouey are shown by the Cincin nati Commercial, That caner save Mrs. Hansen put $50 in the oven of her stove one night to keep it safe. Next morning after breakfast the national debt had been diminished exactly that much, A student of the ourioua would find it interesting to note the places in which women hide their money. One excellent and frugal dame used to tuck her little savings away under a corner of the carpet. The tiny roll of greenbacks grew fatter and fatter in the course of a year or two, when the day after it counted up $250 the house took fire, burnt to the ground, and again the national debt was diminished by a little roll of woman's pin money. There was that other careful lady, too, who used sometimes to hide her diamond rings between two teacups in the kitchen cupboard, sometimes behind a certain brick in the cellar, and again under the lining of an old hat. She had divers other places of safety for her jewels aUo, the only trouble being that she had so many hiding places Bhe occasionally forgot where she had last put her precious things, and about every three months would fancy she had been robbed, and the bouse would be turned inside out and all therein made uncomfortable until the missing gems would be found carefully tucked away in the fulds of the bottom towel of the pile in the left hand corner of the lower drawer in the close press at the east end of the dining room, A Baltimore Cinoat Story. A champion ghost story comes from Baltimore. Many years ago an eccentric and miserly man named Middleton died in a certain house, and though he was thought to have been worth nearlv $50.- 000, not a cent could be found by his heirs. Recently a German named Peter Rsth bought the house, and a few nights after had a dream, In which old Middle-ton appeared to him, and urged him to clean out a certain closet in the rear of tho building. Reth paid no attention to the ghostly mandate, until it was twice repeated, but on the third time the old gentleman appeared so much excited that Reth called In a lot of men and set Ihem at work. During the excavation of the floor they came across a quantity of coin, and it is said carried away four buckets full of it, handing over a small portion to Reth, who is now taking legal steps to recover the treasure. STATE CORRESPONDENCE. Znneavlilc. Zanesville, April 28. To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal : The grand jury have found true indictments against William Trovell, Henry Blonda, Qeorge Brown and James Stee-ver, for burglary; Robert McCrudel, co habiting in a state of adultery, assault with intent to commit rape and petit lar ceny; Jacob Snider, for violating liquor laws: Ellen Minthorn. grand larceny; and Joflerson Moorehead. murder in tbe lint degree. As already stated in this correannnd. ence,this latter caee will be the sensational oase in the present term of Court, oircnm etanlial evidence, at least, being consid- crauir .gainst ine accused. A brief his tory of the case la as follows : In Jnn. 1875 or 1870. the body of John Brnnk. Who bad been hunting, was found in woods, not far from hin hnm near Sonora, this county, with a bullet-hole in his head. The verdict of tho Pnr. oner's jury was that he had accidentally Bhot himself. Suspicion, however, rested on Moorehead and the case was brought before a grand jury, but dismissed, for want of evidenoa against him. In the latter part of this winter the case was again revived by tho mother nf Rmlr filing an affidavit against Moorehead accusing him of the deed. In the succeeding trial it was elicited that Brock had in his possession a shotgun at the time of death, leaving some cause for wonder how the bullet-hole was caused.

It is reported that Dr. Gundry, of the Central Asylum, has been tendered two places, as Superintendent of a Michigan asylum and a Maryland hospital. James Ballard made an assignment today.

To the Editor of the Ohio State Journal i The Republican diofrict committee will meet in this city next Saturday to fix the time and place for holding the Congressional Convention. LaBt week the County Commissioners visited the Children's Home in Washing, ton county, near Marietta, and the district Children's Home of Stark and Columbiana counties, for the purpose of gathering information in regard to the character of buildings and general workings of such institutions. They will meet again soon at Barnesville for the purpose of visiting sites proposed for the Children's Home in this county. We understand that between forty and sixty acres of land will be needed for the purpose. A number of young men met at the City Hall, a few evenings since, for the purpose of electing officers and making other necessary arrangements to institute a Council of the Junior Order of American Mechanics.

Newark. Newark, April 28.

Keep your boys and girls at home, but don t expect to keep them thero by throwing to them the ohaff and keeping the grain yourselves. Don't ask or expect improbable thingsof them. Don't expect them to love a homo which has nothing in it to make it lovely, but where it is constant servitude from morning till night. Don't expect them to love your oiu nuisioes wnen you nave never given them anything there but bard, dull work. uan i expect vour daughters will nva f ha old homestead when they have got to leave it to learn the first lesson in cultim or innocent pleasure. Make your home cneenui ana you will make it a happy one. Instead of making the boy hoe all day on the hillside for you, let him hoe a nan day mere, occasionally for himself. Plow up an acre for the boy and let him have what he raises, and you will soon find that what little leisure time he has will be spent there insteed of running to the village. Don't make him put up all his proceeds in the bank, for he will soon tiro of working for money which does him no good. Let him take a certain portion of it and buy oomething to read or to make his room or home pleasant. Rifle I Vial. S.en by ihe Naked Eye The Rochester Eworesa of Ihe 17th inst. says : "The fact that human eyes with the aid of a field-glass have seen rifla bullets during their flight from tho muzzle of the rifle to the point at which they were aimed, has beon published, we believe, several times, but we have never seen, to our knowledge, tbe announcement that they could be seen with the naked eye. Yet it la a well-attested fact that ritle balls were seen in their flight by sev eral gentlemen without the aid of a gloss or anything, at the rifle range north of this city, one day last week. A high wina was Plowing and Bhowers were frequent in fact, it rained almost constant ly. When the spectators Htood at one Biue ot the shooter they could only fol low the ball to the highest point of the arc which it describes, but when they stood immediately behind the shooter (he lying down and they standing up) they could follow the bullet from a point about lu ieet irom tne muzzle all the way to the target, or whatever object it struck. Oao gentleman told the shooter, immediately after he had fired, that he had shot too much to the right, and tbe signal of me maraer a minute or Iwo aiierward confirmed exactly what ne had said. The balls were seen while the shooters were firing at 500 yards distance. The rifles were of the heavy military kind, which carry a large bullet. Those who saw the bullets on their flight, say that the arc deecribed by them is immense at that distance, and that they also appear to curve to tbe right ai well as up and down." 'l'lio Vatican TnpcMtries. Fall Mall Gazette. It is said that L?o XIII has givan or ders to have the large quantities of tapsB- iry wuicn now ue nio in drawers and cupboards io the Vatican rummaged out, and hung in chronologicil order along the galleries where they C3n be seen. There will be many interesting pieces among them : a quantity of Gobelins, as the French court fur a long time made a present ef a piece every year to the reignirg Pontiff ; pieces of the Flemish schools of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries ; and several of those designed by Raphael, which were saved in the sack of Rome. It would be a good thing if tho Italian government or court would follow the Pope's example; for hidden way in cellars and back roooiB of the Pitti Palace, at Florence, thero are known to be piles of old damasks and bro cades, falling fo pieces for want of look ing alter and bringing to the light : they cannot be sold though many artists and others would gladly buy them without superior orders, and it is said that the only purpose they serve is to be torn up when dusters are required and nothing else is handy. Ventilation. Many persons complain of always getting up tired in the morning. This is very often due to defecliva ventilation of the bedroom, or from using an undue amount of bed clothes and bedding. Feather beds are too Bolt and yielding, and partially envelope the sleeper, thus producing profuse percpiration. The habit of lying too much under blankets ia aleo very per-nioious by reason of the carbonic acid ex haled by the sleeper being respired. Again, it is a common error to suppose mat oy Bimpty opening a window a little at the top a room can be ventilated. Peo ple forget that for proper ventilation there must be an inlet and outlet for the air. In bedrooms there is often neither, and if there is a fireplace, it is generally closed up, Again, it is a mistake to suppose that foul air goes to the top of a room. Certainly the heated air goes to ihe top, but the chjef impurity, the carbonic acid, falls to the bottom. There is nothing so emcactous in removing tbe lower strata of air as the ordinary open fireplace, especially if there is a fire burning. Sanitary Retard. Sleep'. Time. Sleep obtained two hours before midnight when the negative forces are in op eration, is the rest which most recuperates tbe system, giving brightness to the eye and a glow to the cheek. The difference in the appearance of a person who habitually retires at ten o'clock and that of one who sits up until twelve, is quite remarkable. Tbe tone of tbe system, so evident in the complexion, the clearness and sparkle of tho eye, and the softness of the lines of the features, is in a person of health kept at a "concert pitch" by taking regular rest two hours before twelve o'clock, and thereby obtaining the "beauty sleep" of the night. There is a heaviness of the eye, a sallowness of the skin, and an absence of that glow in the face which renders it fresh in expression and round in appearance, that readily distinguishes the person who keeps late hours. What smoklni Does for Boys. A certain doctor, struck with the large number of boys under fifteen years of age whom he observed smoking, was led to inquire into the effect the habit had upon the general health. He took for his purpose thirtyeight boys, aged from nine to fifteen, and carefully examined them; in twentyseven of them he discovered in jurious traces of the habit. In twentytwo there were various disorders of the circulation and digestion, palpitation of the heart, and a more or less marked taste for strong drink. In twelve there was frequent bleeding of the nose, ten had disturbed sleep, and twelve had slight ulceration of the mucous membrane of the mouth, which disappeared on oeasing from the use of tobacco for some days. The doctor treated them all for weakness, but with little effect until the smoking was discontinued, when health and strength were Boon restored, Now, this is no "old wife's tale," as these facts are given under the authority of the British Medical Journal, Insect, on Ro.es. Ellwanger and Barry adopt the following remedy : Boil fourouncee of onasaia chips ten minutes in a gallon of soft water, and after straining add four ounces of soft Boap, which should be dissolved as it cools, stirring well before using. With a small. clean painter's brush, apply it toevery in- icciea ieai ana buooi. in Ulteen or twenty minutes wash the plants with pure water. Tobacco may be used instead of the quassia. For some insects a sprink ling of powdered hellebore will destroy or disperse them, the plants being previously well moistened. HORSE AND TURF NOTES.

A Eureka teamster is noted for the affection that he betrays for one of tbe mules in hiB outfit, the roost obstinate and margy-Iookii g animal in tho string, and his londnees for "Nancy," as he calls her, h.iB paesed into a proverb. Upon being rallied upon this peculiarity by a chum, he discoursed as follows : "I used to have a sweetheart back in Iniiauv that I was awful gone on, and this yere cussed mule has bo many pints in common that my heart just yearns over her. She was as likely a gal as ever run bare-footed in a cornfield, but she was too cussed obstinate to enjoy good health. You never knew juat how to take her. She'd look you right smiling in the eye, and you'd think thar were more Btigar in her nor in a New Orleans merlaes;o hogshead, but if you laid yer hands on her onexoected like. she'd kick the breeching all to h 1 in less than a minute, i hat'djust the way with that mule. I reckon she's cost me nigh onto $500 for harness, Baying nothing about a doctor's bill for a broken leg; but you get into a place whar the mud's deep, and the rest of tho team kerflum-muxed, and call onto her for assistance, and blast my eyes if she won't pull herself clear out of her bide to help you out of your trouble. That were the very way with Nancy. The summer 'fore I emigrated I were mighty with the ager, and got the milk fever on top of that, and I were pretty nearly ready to croBa over Jordan, but she nussed me, helped her ole dad all day, aud sit up with me nights until she were a sbadder, but she pulled me through, and then she advised me to emigrate to Callforny. I hated to go away; it were like persuading a hungry hoes to leave a pail of oats; but thar war no use, she were bound to hev her way, and I came.

His eyes were moist as he closed his affecting reminiscences, sod if any of our readers notice a mouse colored lead mule that can kick a fly off her; companion's ear with unfailing accuracy, or outpull any pair in the team, they will know that the romance of the driver's life is centered in that animal, and respect the tender memories that cause him to bestow upon her the affection that waB once tho sole properly of the departed "Nancy." Statistic. Abont Writing-. The Printing Times says we must accept the following data on the authority of the compiler, who has evidently more time than business on his hands: A rapid penman can write thirty words in a minute. To do this he must draw bin pen through the apace of a rod, 16J feet. In forty minutes his pen travels a furlong. We make on an average sixteen curves or turns of the pen in writing each word, Writing thirty words in a minute, we must make 480 to each minute; in an hour, 28,800; in a day of only five hours, 144,000; and in a year of 800 days, 43,200,000. The man who made 1,-000,000 Btrokes with his pen in a month was not at all remarkable. Many men, newspaper writers for instance, make 4,-000,000. Here we have, on the aggregate, a mark of 300 miles long to be traced on paper by such a writer in a year. In making each letter nf tha ordinary alphabet we must make from three to seven turns of the pen, or an average of three and a half to four. Perhaps some equally ingenious person will next inform us how much ink a journalist can save by not dotting his "i's." Singalar Will Case. A singular will case was decided at Washington last Week.
